Product Description

One can either take the Bible as the basis for scientific truth or use ever-changing evolutionary assumptions as the foundation for your biblical and scientific knowledge. The Bible-as-base model resolves contradictions and gives concrete answers; the evolution-as-base model is as unsure as building a house on sand. Ken Ham knows this, and wants to provide families and individuals with the answers to questions raised by the media's wholesale acceptance of evolution, be it human or cosmic. Unafraid to take on the tough questions, Ham and the other authors he has assembled eviscerate notions of millions of years, gap theory, dinosaurs turning into birds, and a local flood. Moreover, they give the basic facts behind the Ice Age, distant starlight, carbon-14 and radiometric dating techniques, and the supposed proofs for evolution.Perhaps best of all, and what sets this book above others of its kind, are the final two chapters which are instructional to evangelism. Showing how this information can be used in witnessing and how dinosaurs can be used in spreading the Gospel message as given in the Creation narrative. Adults, kids, believers, nonbelielvers, creationist and evolutions can all benefit from this resource.

Author Bio

Ken Ham is the president/CEO and founder of Answers in Genesis - U.S. and the highly acclaimed Creation Museum. Ken Ham is one of the most in-demand Christian speakers in North America. Ken's emphasis is on the relevance and authority of the book of Genesis and how compromise on Genesis has opened a dangerous door regarding how the culture and church view biblical authority. His Australian accent, keen sense of humor, captivating stories, and exceptional PowerPoint illustrations have made him one of North America's most effective Christian communicators.

The chapters in this text are written at roughly a 9th grade reading level, so it is not properly a text for children, as some have supposed. It is a nice introduction to Creation Science. As someone trained at the university level in the biological science -- having endured countless lectures on Darwinism and having that theory taught as scientific fact -- I find it refreshing to read from the Creationist perspective. Creationism is no less proven than Evolution (I now have a good grasp of the arguments for both); however, with Creationism, there is a bit more to look forward to.

This book should be on every Christian bookshelf. Ken Ham at his best once again. I was lent this book by a friend once and then decided that I needed to have both vol 1 & 2 for my own family. Knowledge is power for Christians.
